I’ve been here a couple times over the years; most recently, for the lunch brunch on New Year’s Day. My favs included the fried veggies, eggplant puree and chicken tikka masala. Total cost for one brunch is $19. krismlars.com
Superb place to have indian food. Nice ambience and easily reachable from downtown. Staff is welcoming and reasonably good service.Although its an indian more specific Nepali restaurant still you will find lots of local guests.
This place is so yummy. I ordered the malai kofta. I feel like that one is tricky to get the right flavor. But this place did it. I got the mosaic pakora – mixed vegetable pakoras and the aalu namkeen chaat. Those two were very delicious. Must try. I also ended up ordering paneer chill fry with gravy which was okay. Not bad but nothing special. Ofcourse definitely get the garlic naan and the onion kulcha. But the best part was the dessert: I tried their gulab jamun and kheer. While the kheer was decent, the gulab jamun was phenomenal – one of the best in the city. Go today for that gulab jamun!
I cannot wait to get back to this restaurant! The food and service were fantastic and even though the restaurant was packed it was not too loud. The flavor of our dishes were amazing and the suggestions provided by our server were spot on.
Nepal is for me. I want the yeti I want the everest I want the Buddha, all for me!! I had a magnificant goat chunk dish here and they are so awesome that even the typically bland TIkki was to hot for my partner to handle, just like me 😉
Cumin Upscale Indian. Went to Cumin for first time on 12/27 with out of town guests; upscale Nepalese/Indian restaurant catering to upscale crowd — very good food, but somewhat overpriced, compared to Devon Avenue. Good drinks menu; service perfunctory; didn’t make us feel welcome; after putting down food, never came back to table until end of meal, had the feeling of being rushed out because restaurant was busy. Not enough rice for table of four, especially if one person is a big eater; nothing else served with lamb entre except for rice. Missed having some side dish or something to go wtih it. Waiter didn’t help with menu descriptions. Won’t go back again — prefer Devon Avenue.
Yumtastic! good well spiced indian food authentic
